Gunnery Sergeant

Start Date: 1975-07-01End Date: 1995-08-01

I had various assignments ranging from avionics technician up through Assistant Avionics Chief. Major accomplishments involved me with ensuring maintenance performed was in compliance with approved repair and maintenance procedures established in aircraft/system Maintenance Plans. I projected equipment, personnel, training, mobile facilities, and technical data requirements to achieve and maintain readiness goals. I represented current command and higher headquarters at decision-making forums, such as ILS Management Team Meetings and Engineering Design Reviews. I provided input to the design phases and reviewed the Logistics Support Analysis and Level of Repair Analysis for aircraft systems and support equipment. I coordinated the review and verification of all proposed avionics hardware and software changes for AV-8B aircraft. Through my leadership and research, MALS-13 established the initial capability to repair aviation-grade fiber-optic cables. I was the honored recipient of the MAG-13, Third MAW, and HQMC Avionics Marine of the Year awards.
